Anders Christian Madsen reports on the Louis Vuitton show

Report by Anders Christian Madsen on 3 October 2013.

For his swan song, Jacobs put on a retrospective of epic proportions, paying homage to his own history of both collections and shows for the house. There was a carousel, a fountain, station hall escalators, lifts, uniformed porters and maids, and the kind of excitement in the room, which has always belonged to that last Wednesday morning of the Paris shows when everyone knew that Jacobs would create a fashion moment to be remembered.
